SANTA CLARA, Calif., (June 28, 2016) – BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. the premier publisher of anime videogames today released GOD EATER™ RESURRECTION digitally for the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system and PlayStation®Vita handheld system across the Americas exclusively through the PlayStation®Store. Join the ranks of an elite force of monster fighting God Eaters, take up arms with all-powerful God Arc weapons, and join friends to slay gigantic monstrosities threatening to bring about humanity’s extinction.
In GOD EATER RESURRECTION players take control of the newest recruit to the Fenrir Organization’s Far East Branch, a New Type God Eater with a rare ability to wield a God Arc capable of transforming between blade and gun forms. Players will be tasked with accepting missions from their home base to hunt down vicious Aragami, evil monstrosities with god-like adaptability. Immune to conventional weaponry, the Aragami have forced humanity into small decrepit pockets of civilization in a devastated world. The Aragami’s single known weakness is the God Arc, a living weapon constructed from Oracle Cells. Players can use the Oracle Cells within their God Arc to devour the essence of defeated Aragami to upgrade their weapons to take on more formidable opponents.
Players will have a variety of God Arcs to choose from before they head out on missions that best suit their play styles. Players will also be able to coordinate their loadouts with friends in the game’s online cooperative multiplayer mode. Team up with up to three friends online to take on story mode missions and use the team’s combined skills to topple Aragami and enjoy GOD EATER RESURRECTION’s storyline together.
“The world of GOD EATER RESURRECTION is rich in story and combat, presenting colossus sized enemies to defeat with friends, enveloped in an engrossing dramatic storyline that pushes the action forward,” said Eric Hartness, Vice President of Marketing for BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. “The deep customization and progression systems along with over 100 hours-worth of gameplay ensures players will become attached to their own unique characters as they eviscerate the scourge of Aragmi threatening humanity.”
